The problem I reported seems to have been a freak event.
Booted with pfix=ram (several times) using both kernels, and have not been able to reproduce it. No problems after saving and rebooting either, although it had happened after my first boot, before installing, saving or abusing it in anyway.
It did remain if I used the original savefolder though, with either kernel.
Anyway, sorry for wasting anyone's time.

Talking about updates you may want to consider an automatic update prompt for quickpet fixes, ie without user input check and prompt if available, say at each boot or once a week. If a big update is needed you can just pass the relevant message through quickpet.666philb wrote: cdrtools3 are quite big so instead of coming through quickpet , i want to see if i can get it to come through the PPMs service pack update mechanism.
It is likely that some will complain about this but this is standard in every modern OS. As long as user can turn it on/off should be fine. If the user can configure it to go on with the update automatically without confirmation, even better

My reason for moving to Puppy was because it is unlike the others.
- Windows gave me frustrations at every boot because of the upgrades. It might be turned off, but those this is made for, doesn't know how to turn it off. The system should not 'live' on its own. - I thought that was one of the Puppy's mantras.
- I was fed up with all kind of pop-ups I didn't understand, and clicked 'ok' just to get rid of it. Puppy gave me peace, letting me do my job.
- Today, I also like the experimental leadership model. Can a do-ocracy actually live on.
- I have not said anything about speed, stability and playground.

I don't know if what I'm experiencing is a tahr puppy's bug. I have installed Firefox 33.0 with advert-blocker, noscript and adblock. When I try to open the following website in tahr:
http://www.gizmodo.it/
than in few seconds I get a black screen and I have to hard power-off the laptop: before quitting my laptop barks. When booting again the savefile updates the layered filesystem. The savefile I use is an upgraded one from 5.8.4.
In slacko 5.7 with the same firefox's profile I can read that website.

how can i install nvidia driver???
i past 2 days trying to install an nvidia driver and all i get is a black screem
first of all i have this hardware:
NVIDIA GT216 [GeForce GT 330M] (rev a2) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
Using the getnvidia.pet from quickpet:
1- download the nvidia*.run from the web of nvidia, the last driver i can use is 340.46. Manually download and use in getnvidia result in a black screem where i cannot do anythings and lose all of my session (i need to erase the save file and create a newone)
2- downlading the installer directly from the getnvidia -> download the same 340.46 file and get the same problem.
3- Trying olders drivers... i tryed:
NVIDIA-Linux-x86-319.76.run -> error trying to create de sfs/pet file
NVIDIA-Linux-x86-304.123 -> the same black screem
NVIDIA-Linux-x86-304.117 -> the same black screem
NVIDIA-Linux-x86-331.104 -> the same black screem
4- trying another kernel, from quickpet, i tried the kernel-3.16.3.. and get the same result of the default kernel
Anybody can help me? anybody have the same problem?
i need the Nvidia driver to play a game (Path of Exile) that run better than nvoau driver.

luiscuadrado123,
Do you have the DEVX and kernel source SFS packages loaded when you do this?

added your mtpaint help and have asked rcrsn51 about legacy grub, as there's a warning about it on his post.

Seems it needs yelp to work.
I remember getting it to work, but I had yelp installed to see what it did.
I tried installing yelp with PPM, but it wanted to install 79mb of stuff. Too big to have in the Tahrpup 6.0 iso.
You can go to gnumeric->help->about and click on the gnumeric web page link, which will open in the default browser.
The user manual is easy to find there.
So, not really a bug.
A Puppy feature
You do not need a stinking manual.
Well, you may, so go get it from the gnumeic web site link in help->about.

hi all, I have a problem problem with ndswrapper module:
Once the driver loaded correctly, I gol a FATAL error ndswrapper module not found
While if i use lxpuppy the driver works fine.
i googled the error and it scemo it can be solved by downloading the ndiswrapper source code and re install it.
I tried, but when I try to actually MAKE the file, I get a missing .config related error... How can I use the make command? Or simply make ndiswrapper work?
Thanks!

Hi AlsoNewtoPuppy,
could you try installing ndiswrapper again by pasting this into a terminal let me know if it works then.
